1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

purpose of reviewWe aim to summarize the validation of patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) used in orthopaedic conditions, particularly for non-English languages. We also identify completed translations and areas of ongoing need to support the expansion and broader adoption of PROMs in orthopaedic surgery. RECENT

findingsRecent translations and cross-cultural adaptations of PROMs used in orthopaedic surgery continue to employ robust methods for validation. Many PROMs have undergone extensive translations since their initial development. There has also been a large volume of recent work to translate PROMs used in orthopaedic surgery, with more than 45 studies. While some PROMs are available in a wide range of different languages, some PROMs have undergone fewer translations. Additionally, while there has been ongoing work to translate tools and surveys used in orthopaedic surgery, a small proportion of these translated PROMs reflect that of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons-preferred list of PROMs.
